Human Martial Saint: Starting with Bajiquan

Chapter 16 Pure Yang Pill

However, the specific calculation method for expense reimbursement remains unclear.

Liu Sheng was somewhat worried.

Considering that he was only of inferior constitution.

Moreover, I haven't tried the proficiency panel in the internal training method yet, so I don't know if it can help me break through the bottleneck.

Liu Sheng had overheard his fellow martial arts students chatting and knew that internal training methods and external training methods were different, and that there were thresholds and bottlenecks involved.

For example, in the skin-smoothing stage, if one can get started, then the subsequent minor stages, all the way to perfection, will come naturally.

However, many people repeatedly accumulate qi and blood, but get stuck at the entry level and can't get past it in their entire lives.

Moreover, without crossing this first minor stage of entry, the human body will not undergo any significant changes.

But once you break through, whether it's a minor or major realm, your body will undergo a qualitative change, as if you've been reborn.

For example, the "skin smoothing" stage means the skin is more resilient, while the "muscle building" stage means the muscles are stronger.

When a martial artist is about to break through, their blood and energy become exceptionally vigorous. If they succeed, they succeed; if they fail, they have to start accumulating blood and energy all over again.

This cycle repeats itself.

He could imagine how lost others must feel, having to rely solely on sheer willpower to endure cycle after cycle of reincarnation without being able to see his progress.

Although he could see the progress, he had never tried internal training methods before. External training methods all involved numerical progress, while internal training methods involved a noble percentage.

This makes him seem insecure.

What if I can only accumulate up to 99%, and the breakthrough still depends on myself, through some profound and mysterious enlightenment? If I never reach the Skin Polishing Realm in my entire life, wouldn't I be stuck relying on my parents for the rest of my life?

Of course, given Zhang Tianxing's status, he probably wouldn't mind having another mouth to speak, but he still has some sense of shame.

Having finally managed to latch onto such a powerful ally, one should at least appear sincere on the surface.

After a complex internal struggle, Liu Sheng cautiously expressed his doubts—

First of all, I will definitely study diligently.

Secondly, I've heard that there are bottlenecks in internal cultivation methods, and I can't seem to break through them. What should I do?

Given my own limited talent, it wouldn't be right to keep bothering my master if I were to attempt breakthroughs multiple times in the future.

Upon hearing this, Zhang Tianxing countered with a question:

"How long did it take you to reach a basic level of proficiency in your boxing skills?"

Liu Sheng respectfully replied, "Reporting to Grandmaster, it has been 5 months."

"Such a bright child, even with inferior talent, could only need five months to master a minor level of martial arts? He must have become lazy!"

Zhang Tianxing raised an eyebrow slightly, turned to Gao Huang, and smiled:

"Also, use pills, deduct them from my account, and give him the Rebel Army Training Method to help him speed up! If he can't break through in one go, just break through several times in a short period of time, right?"

Upon hearing the words "Military Training Method".

Gao Huang and Lu Yi looked at each other strangely.

It seemed as if they were both caught up in some unpleasant memories.

Even the corner of his mouth twitched almost imperceptibly.

But the two of them quickly agreed.

Zhang Tianxing continued, "You can stay here for now. The medicines in the army are better. Once you enter the Skin-Melting Realm, you can return to the county town. I will send someone to inform your family."

After chatting for a few more minutes, Zhang Tianxing encouraged him to master martial arts as soon as possible, participate in the martial arts examination in the future, and then join the righteous army as a martial arts scholar.

Then he turned around with his hands behind his back.

With a thoughtful expression, he stroked the visualization diagram in his hand and left.

Gao Huang wanted to protect Zhang Tianxing, so he patted Liu Sheng on the head, as if to encourage him, or perhaps out of pity.

Then he strolled out as well.

Now only the eldest brother Lu You and Sha Zi remain.

She was also with Liu Sheng.

Just like yesterday, Liu Sheng first used military equipment to temper his qi and blood.

After applying the medicine and waiting for it to dry completely and form a thin film, you can begin today's practice.

Then he looked at Lu You and reminded him, "Senior Brother, the pills that Grandmaster just mentioned..."

"No rush, practice first, and call me when you get tired."

Lu You, who was accompanying him, was not entirely idle either. He was practicing his stance training in place and answering questions casually.

"Okay."

Although he was practicing, Liu Sheng always felt that relying on his own cultivation was the right path.

Does using elixirs seem a bit like forcing growth?

Perhaps due to his memories from his past life, he subconsciously felt that relying on external forces to cultivate martial arts was not so reliable, and even risky.

Of course, dietary supplements are an exception.

Oh, and that excludes the proficiency bonus.

But since my grandmaster said so, surely the title of the number one martial arts master wouldn't harm me?

Most importantly, this pill is free, so how could I refuse it?

So he opened the panel again, took a deep breath, burrowed into the sand dune, and began to pupate.

The sand, dried and scalding hot from the sun, rubbed against his skin, which was covered by a very thin film of medicine. In his imagination, these sand grains were like water.

Then his limbs began to slide rhythmically.

Today, his body is more familiar with sand, and Liu Sheng can even do dog paddle and breaststroke at the same time.

After becoming proficient, he even used the butterfly stroke at one point.

Then, fearing that the effect might not be fully covered, they periodically added some backstroke and underwater swimming.

An hour has passed.

Liu Sheng finally surfaced, panting heavily, too lazy to even move his fingers.

Seeing that Liu Sheng was finally too tired to swim anymore.

Lu You poured out a dark green pill from the porcelain bottle in his hand, which exuded a bitter, herbal scent.

Followed by.

He revealed a smile that said, "The torch has been passed on."

"Junior brother, open your mouth."

Upon seeing his senior brother, he revealed a strange smile that he had never seen before.

Besides, this is something that is going to be eaten.

Liu Sheng was somewhat wary:

"Senior Brother, what kind of pill is this?"

Lu Yi remained calm and said, "Pure Yang Pill."

"???"

Liu Sheng always felt that there was something strange about the name.

Is it the kind you're thinking of?

Seeing that the other person's expression was as expected, Lu, in a tone of someone who had been through it all, kindly explained:

"In the book, it was called Dali Wan (Power Pill), but my grandmaster thought it was too vulgar, so he improved the formula and renamed it Chunyang Dan (Pure Yang Pill)."

Liu Sheng didn't think the changes were that much better...

Liu Sheng felt that his grandmaster was quite leisurely.

As the military governor of a prefecture, my master had to manage the righteous army and protect the people under his rule.

There's still time to improve human martial arts.

They even had the leisure to name this elixir.

But since it was personally improved and certified by his master, Liu Sheng swallowed it without worry.

Then he saw that after feeding the pills, his senior brother Lu You suddenly leaped away, jumping a long distance away.

Liu Sheng was puzzled and was about to ask a question.

He felt as if his brain was about to explode the moment the pill entered his mouth.

How can there be such suffering in this world?!

An intensely bitter taste shot straight to the top of my head and into my stomach, instantly swelling in my mouth.

He was about to spit it out when he realized that the thing melted in his mouth and he had already swallowed it. It was so bitter that he even lost the ability to gag.

In an instant, the limbs, which had been limp and weak as if filled with lead, suddenly gained abundant strength.

The name Chunyang is truly fitting.

An uncontrollable restlessness surged and gushed between his muscles.

It even subtly supports the skin.

Liu Sheng just wanted to start swimming as soon as possible to vent his restlessness and relieve his pain.

He stirred up sand and dust, making it fly everywhere.

Lu, however, was experienced and had long since kept his distance.

Liu Sheng is already doing freestyle in the sand!

Their swimming speed is more than two or three times faster than before!!!

Half an hour, an hour, an hour and a half...

……

Recalling what just happened.

The grandmaster's face was full of loving kindness, and his arrangements were unquestionable, while the master and senior brother had strange expressions.

Liu Sheng was immersed in this immense joy and profound pain.

I finally understand everything.

It can be said that in the next few days...

Liu Sheng's studies were fulfilling yet tedious.

Every day is spent swimming in the desert.

When his hands were too weak, he used his feet to kick.

When he was too weak to move and wanted to rest, the senior brother kicked him.

This made Liu Sheng even more powerful.

Then he quickly used his body to continue the process of creating pupae.

When his body was completely exhausted, the eldest brother kicked repeatedly, but it didn't help.

The eldest brother couldn't wait to feed him his favorite Pure Yang Pill.

Then he would have inexhaustible strength.

Under this time-tested militia training method.

Liu Sheng's skin smoothing progress is also increasing rapidly.

"Senior Brother, this pill is so effective, will it have any side effects?"

Liu Sheng had some understanding of the principle that every medicine has some degree of toxicity.

The eldest brother thought for a moment and said, "The old formula does exist, but it depletes a person's vital essence and blood, reducing their lifespan."

Liu Sheng was so frightened that he shuddered.

"But now that Master has improved it... wouldn't you say it's especially bitter? Oh, and people get hungry very easily, so eat more meat for lunch and dinner!"

Hearing this, Liu Sheng was finally relieved.

Compared to his rapid skin smoothing progress, what is a little hardship?
